August 18, 2014

Provo – Imagine Learning has formed a new alliance with Scantron, a provider of K–12 interim/formative assessment solutions.

This relationship expands assessment resources available to teachers and administrators to include a researched-based diagnostic tool that provides an unbiased data set to measure and track student learning—allowing educators to make better-informed decisions regarding individualized instruction.

“We’ve received requests from teachers and administrators who want to be able to validate the efficacy of Imagine Learning through an independent assessment,” said Marc Liebman, chief academic officer for Imagine Learning. “Because meeting customers’ needs is at the top of our priority list, we are happy to join with Scantron in addressing this request.”

Working with Scantron will allow Imagine Learning to provide an integrated solution of its software with Scantron’s computer adaptive Performance Series Reading assessment, so the test will launch automatically on a school-selected schedule.

“Scantron is committed to advancing language and literacy development through opportunities like this where our flexible, highly individualized assessment solutions help pinpoint instructional needs of diverse student populations like English language learners, beginning students, and struggling readers,” said Jay Whitchurch, executive vice president for Scantron. “Our process for item development and detailed, skill level reporting aligned to Common Core, specific state, or a combination of standards is what makes us a leader in the diagnostic assessment space.”
